A well intentioned rant about the current state of Advertising, with particular emphasis on Big Dumb Agencies (BDA's) Because, no matter how bad you think it is, it's actually a great deal worse!

Draft/FCB - taco bell - big ass update!

Here’s the latest from West Coast “Deep Throats.“ Most of the Irvine office is gone, about 60 people
or so, with the exception of 10-15 people they're moving to LA to work on door
hangers, menu cards, toilet paper dispensers and to try to drum up new
business. This from current employees, who said yes, they did actually lose the
account. DFCB's quote on AgencySpy says "Any
suggestion that Draft/FCB’s West Coast operation is no longer working with Taco
Bell is wrong.” As a commenter there pointed out, this is very different
from being agency of record. They may still have a few wanky little below the
line projects officially, but that's it. They are no longer the AOR. You heard
it here on AdScam… Have I ever been fucking wrong?
